Clermont Foot snatched a 1-all draw at the very end of the match against Rodez. Not an unfortunate ending but rather logical in view of the game, even if the 4,478 supporters present at the Montpied stadium long believed in a new disillusionment. The Clermontois ran after the score throughout the second half without managing to equalize, despite a huge opportunity and two consecutive bars from Douane and Diop in the 49th minute.
A delay to make up for after Abdallah's goal (45+3) at the end of the first period. After a fairly dull half-hour, with two good strikes from Douane and Diop, Clermont Foot wrapped up the game at the half-hour mark with several hot situations and saves from Mpasi on attempts from Douane and Konaté. Half-time was looming and once again, in an action apparently without much danger, the Clermontois were trapped.
They had the merit of fighting until the end, with this (almost) last action, this cross from Armougoum taken in the axis by Diaby, two entrants (89th). Diaby even had the opportunity to score a double a minute later: Mpasi was beaten but a defender saved on his line. 1-1, In the end, just one point is not enough but Clermont Foot avoided the lack of taste before the holidays.
Clermont Foot lost a place in the ranking, before the last matches of this 16th day and fell to 14th place, ahead of Troyes. There is still one match to play this year, in the Coupe de France. Clermont travels to Sochaux next Sunday.
